Dream big dreams; only big dreams have the power to move men’s souls.
-Marcus Aurelius, Emperor of Rome
It's a paradox. It's the big goals that excite us and get us to stop hitting the snooze button. They make us feel alive. They make the boring interesting, and the frustrating exciting.
But it's the big goals that are the least likely to end up accomplished.
After a short burst of energy, the excitement and interest fizzles. And then, maybe, you get excited once again. And then, just like last time, after a short burst of energy, the excitement fizzles and takes you back to where you started, with little or no progress to show for it.
For much of my life, I've set only realistic goals. Goals that could be easily accomplished. After all, what's the point of dreaming big if the obvious result is failure?
But I've gotten greedy. I'd rather get work done AND feel inspired.
I don't want to have just enough motivation to get by. I want as much as possible. More motivation equals more energy and more life.
Are you greedy too?
Do you want more accomplishment, more energy, more happiness, more life?
Then welcome to the world's best free guide to goal setting.
